maybe it is because you have not called the function assign data, as
it is in here that the dataprovider binding is setup.
Why not set the binding up on the combo:
<mx:ComboBox id="assetMFR" editable="true" dataProvider={arrData}/>
and make sure that the array arrData, is defined outside of the function
